Never Stand too Close to a Street Sweeper

Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed

People care about keeping city streets clean. Unfortunately, some people take it too seriously. A Seattle man was taking out his trash, and somehow got himself stuck inside the street sweeper. Officials are feverishly working to get the man out, because he has dust allergies. That man is Chris Pirillo.

is this real?

That is one of the most funnies things i have seen in a while. That would defanatly hurt being sucked up by one of those things.

I guess it could be but I seriously doubt it because I would hope a news crew would have better graphics than that yellow text below his picture, plus look at the book he is reading and the fact that the blog post has links for “Stand-up Comedy Secrets!” and “That’s Comedy! - The Net’s #1 Joke EBook.”

Lol. Something tells me… no.

LOL!!
Are you still alive Chris?

Guy’s, this is not real.

But you can get your own customized video at:

I forgot to mention that this is pretty funny but also is that even possible?

Lol I knew you would edit it after you watching it like hundreds of times and laughing non stop xD. Thanqz for uploading it to youtube also :D, I couldn’t embed it from the original site.

This reminds me of those customizable videos you could make last Halloween (I think it was last Halloween) with footage from Dexter showing some general details about someone whose name you could put in and their name written in blood along with a message that said they were next! LOL!

lol

was fooled till i saw Joey’s post (although i had doubts)

great video chris

Haha Chris! ;) How did you embed it?

Nice one chris!
:D :D :D

Funny, laughing out load funny, but why? Is this the man we all trust to get important information about our computers? I think I’ll just take it to be that Chris was very drunk and stoned one night and thought it would be a great prank on his viewers.

I was swept away by that story.

How the F*ck did you mange to do that Chris? I havent been in chat for a while because i was in Tahoe. Then when i come back, i see that you have been sucked into a street sweeper. I dont know how you do it, but that is pretty F*cking amazing.

Chris, I’m glad your feeling fine. By coincidence, I also got swept up by a street sweeper and channel 19 ran my story too. Thanks for showing this fun site.

Wow. How unlucky is that?
